Hug a Veteran

Today is for remembering our veterans and I saluate them all for fighting for my freedom. However, I would like to introduce you to a veteran that is very dear to me. Meet my son-in-law.

Weekly goals & some other stuff

Friday afternoon I went to a local quilt show. Very nice quilts. I was disappointed that they wouldn’t let you take photos but they did give you gloves so you could touch the quilts. One of the vendors had a great sale (patterns 50% off and fat qtrs for $1 if you bought 20). Of course I did my part to help the economy.

Having walked to much at the quilt show I came home and read Pat Sloan’s book Take the Fear Out of Color. I need to insert a warning at this time.

WARNING: Do not read Pat’s book if you do not want to get organized because this book is loaded with ways to organize your fabrics and fantastic patterns. ;)

See what Pat’s book made me do and I’m so happy.

From this to this
